Jennifer Claridge
Secretary
Mrs. Claridge is, without question, the glue that holds Mary Bergeron Elementary together. As our school secretary, Jenn wears more hats than we can count—scheduler, problem-solver, nurse, tech support, listener, organizer, gatekeeper, and occasional miracle worker. No two minutes of her day look the same, yet she handles every task with grace, calm, and an unshakable sense of purpose.
Loved by students and staff alike, Jenn is the friendly face and steady presence that makes everyone feel supported and cared for. Students know they can come to her with anything—from a lost tooth to a tough day—and they’ll be met with kindness and understanding. Behind the scenes, Jenn keeps the school running like a well-oiled machine, juggling a million moving pieces while somehow keeping the principal (and the rest of us) organized and on task. No small feat, indeed.
Simply put, we’d be lost without her—and we wouldn’t want to imagine MBE without Jenn at its heart.
